this is not a new tax. it is in the a different tax. it is in the a tax we're applying to anybody. it is a mechanism for the collection of a tax that has been owed for over 20 years by people buying retail purchases in your states from people who sell out of state. i commend the leadership on the legislation. i hope everybody will bring their amendments to the floor. i don't know if there is any need for them. i hope we can send a clear message that we're prepared to let our local and state governments collect the tax that is owed to them and has been owed to them. my state of georgia's governor led a major tax reform package in my state that passed with only one dissenting vote. it reformed taxes on utilities for manufacturing to attract business to our state. it reformed our income tax code. it reformed a lot of our taxes but it also passed legislation consistent with the marketplace fairness act, so we can finally collect a tax that has been owed for a long, long time in our state. as a real estate guy, as someone who used to lease retail space in shopping centers and on corners

the gift tax exemption was raised to the same level as the estate tax: the same $5.25 million. it was supposed to go down to a million, so this is a good opportunity for people to take advantage of this, because with the new budget proposal, there is a good chance they could lower it back to the old $1 million, and this way they could be grandfathered. if that is taken away, their estates won't be subject to this tax, and the growth will be out of the people's estates too. - i know a number of years ago, grandparents who wanted to give just a straight gift to children, for example, it was $10,000 a year. now that is up to $14,000, and that is a real boon for grandparents to sort of offload their cash. - right. and if you are married you can double that to $28,000, and if you have a child or grandchild who is married, you can double that again to $56,000. but there are a couple of exceptions that can increase it, such as if the grandparent has a child, say, in college, if he pays the college tuition directly to the school, it doesn't eat into the $14,000 exemption. - so you stil

this bill does not create new taxes or increase existing tax taxes. instead, the bill will help states and cities collect billions in unpaid taxes already owed, reducing the need to raise new taxes on tax compliant businesses and citizens. indeed, yesterday i was with my governor and he indicated that if we could pass this at the federal level and allow the state of rhode island to collect approximately $70 million a year, he would propose a reduction in our sales tax, which would benefit all the people in rhode island and also benefit the businesses in rhode island because they would have a smaller sales tax margin to pay. so this is a proposal that i think is not only necessary, it's long overdue. in 2012, as i've indicated, rhode island estimated it lost approximately $70 million in uncollected revenue. the revenue was legally owed but because of this loophole, it went uncollected. this puts pressure on individuals and businesses that play by the rules. indeed, if the marketplace fairness act becomes law, rhode island has provisions in state law, a
